Pros
  • Enjoy a location right on the coast, where just a couple of minutes on foot takes you to the sand at Son Caliu Beach.
  • There are a few different pools at the hotel, including an outdoor pool with sea views and a kids' pool. 
  • You can rent bikes from the property or store/tune up yours at the property's cycling center, plus you'll have access to the hotel's gym and tennis courts.
  • The massive spa features amenities not common in other wellness centers, such as hydromassage beds, a steam room where you inhale saline, and a traditional Roman thermal bath. 
  • Some premium rooms and suites have private terraces with pools, sun loungers, and/or putting greens, plus sea views. 
  • You'll eat well at the numerous bars and restaurants, including the Biniagual Restaurant with its elegant dining room, a beach club overlooking the sea, and an outdoor eatery with a terrace. 
Cons
  • The hotel is huge, with over 220 rooms, so it can sometimes feel a little crowded and noisy. 
  • The standard rooms are small and plain, so you'll need to book an upgraded unit to feel more comfortable. And though the apartments are a nice option for self-catering travelers, groups, or families, they lack any authentic character.

Authenticity

The hotel embraces its beachfront location and Mallorca's hedonistic heritage by offering airy seaside decor and numerous places to relax. The hotel's wellness center provides over 10,000 square feet (1,000 sqm) of relaxation, including a spa with a sauna and other perks. And when you're ready to hit the sand, you'll enjoy private access to Son Caliu Beach. The perfect mix of Mallorca!

Location

Enjoy a stay on the popular coastal stretch south of Palma, just a 20-minute drive to the historic city center. You'll be on a leafy street and just two minutes by foot to Son Caliu Beach, though Palmanova Beach, a sandier option, is just 20 minutes away. If you have a rental car or private transfer, you can explore some of the area's picturesque coves, including Playa del Mago and Cala Del Toro, in just 20 minutes. 

Rooms & Bathrooms

You have your choice of apartments and traditional hotel rooms. Apartments are bright, spacious, and simple, with kitchens, dining rooms, and private terraces with sea views. On the other hand, the rooms feel more contemporary and stylish, especially the suites. All offer air-conditioning, private outdoor spaces, bathrobes, and slippers, while higher-tiered rooms provide sea views. Some suites add unique perks like private rooftop terraces with a pool, a small putting green, and access to the hotel's exclusive lounge. 

Other Highlights

The spa is worth a mention, as it has a long list of amenities, including an indoor pool, hydromassage bubble beds, a Finnish dry sauna, herbal and saline inhalation steam rooms, a Laconium (Roman thermal bath), an ice fountain, sensory showers, and more. There's also a bike center, as the area is popular with cycling, and a gym with fitness classes. The hotel features six bars and restaurants for meals, drinks, and snacks, four with options for outdoor dining.
